A heavy, expanded sans with squared, superellipse-like outlines and consistently rounded corners. Strokes are uniform and chunky, with tight internal counters that read as rounded rectangles, giving letters a machined, modular feel. Terminals are flat and crisp, and several forms show small horizontal cut-ins or notch-like joins that add a slightly stencil-like rhythm. The overall texture is dense and steady, optimized for impact rather than delicacy.
Best suited for large sizes where its mass, wide stance, and geometric corners can read clearly—such as headlines, posters, and branding marks. It also works well for product packaging, sports or esports identities, and tech-forward UI headings where a sturdy, high-impact voice is needed.
The tone is bold and utilitarian, with a confident, engineered character that feels at home in tech and industrial contexts. Its rounded-square geometry keeps it friendly enough for modern branding while still projecting strength and speed. The notch details add a subtle “hardware” or “display” flavor that reinforces a futuristic, performance-oriented mood.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch through broad proportions and rounded-square geometry, while preserving a clean sans structure. The added notch-like shaping suggests an aim toward a contemporary, engineered aesthetic that feels suited to display-driven applications.
The widest capitals (notably M/W) emphasize breadth and stability, while the compact counters and squared bowls keep words looking tight and punchy. Numerals match the same rounded-rectangular construction, maintaining a consistent, scoreboard-like presence in mixed text.
